Hiking Pu'uwa'awa'a Cone and Mauna Kea Observatory Feb 14, 2022

 This may have been the coolest way anyone could spend Valentine's Day!

Hiking Pu'uwa'awa'a











That same evening Matt and Angie took us up to see the telescopes.  Didn't sound that great, but whatever.  As we started to drive up, there were clouds coming in, so I didn't think the sunset would be that great.  Boy, was I wrong!!!

Half the way up, the rangers make you stop and acclimate for 30 minutes.  We were going to be going just under 14,000 feet from sea level to get to the telescopes.  There are no words to describe the top!  Weirdly amazing!  It looked like something from a space movie!



...and the sunset from ABOVE the clouds!





It was a great Valentines Day!
